🪥 Brushing twice a day is great. But is it enough?
Most of us are pretty good at the basics — brushing morning and night, maybe using mouthwash. But here's something a lot of people don't realise: no matter how good your home routine is, it simply can't remove everything.
Over time, plaque hardens into tartar — a stubborn build-up that can't be shifted with a toothbrush alone. Once tartar takes hold, it creates the perfect environment for bacteria to thrive, which can lead to gum disease, tooth decay, bad breath, and if left untreated, even tooth loss.
That's why regular visits to our dental hygienist are so important — not just as a top-up, but as an essential part of keeping your mouth truly healthy. 🦷
At Diamond Dental Care, a hygiene appointment with our hygiene therapists includes:
🔹 A thorough examination of your teeth and gums to spot any early warning signs
🔹 A professional scale and polish to remove hardened plaque and tartar from even the most hard-to-reach spots
🔹 Personalised, non-judgemental advice to help you get even more from your routine at home
The result? Fresher breath, a brighter smile, healthier gums — and the peace of mind that comes from knowing your oral health is in great hands. 😊
Most people benefit from seeing their hygienist once or twice a year — and you don't even need a referral from your dentist to book in. We offer direct access hygiene appointments, so you can come to us whenever you're ready.
Hygiene appointments start from £62, and are included in our Membership Plan from just £17.60/month.
Don't wait until something hurts. Book your hygiene appointment today and give your smile the care it deserves. 💎
